    … I have no camera.

    This new CAPTCHA’s prejudicial and exclusionary.

    Not to mention grotesquely invasive.

      Some people have no hands. Are those people supposed to wave their stump around? What about people who don’t even have stumps?

        Also, some people who have arms can’t wave them around very easily, or at all

    I now mess around with all captchas. Each time a site asks me to find x or click on y. I purposely click the wrong ones to help feed the algorithm!

      YouTube TV has this questionaire that says what brands have you heard of. It offers 4 brands and none of the above. However the Nimrods made it a checkbox instead of radio button. So of course every time I gladly fill out their survey. I say I’ve heard of all four and also none of the above. Anything to poison the data!
